Cynthia Darby Piano Recital October 1

A versatile pianist, Cynthia Darby will perform works by Scarlatti, Beethoven and Debussy. An active recitalist and chamber musician, Ms. Darby has been a guest of several orchestras including the San Francisco Symphony. Her solo performances have been described as“…truly satisfying…a remarkable performance” (San Francisco Chronicle), …”exuded a highly cultivated musical sensibility” (Los Angeles Times), and “… played with unabashed lyricism, giving way in turn to playfulness and passion.” (Santa Rosa Press Democrat)

Ms. Darby graduated with highest honors from New England Conservatory of Music in Boston where she studied with Russell Sherman and was a fellowship recipient to the Berkshire Music Festival at Tanglewood. She has served on a number of faculties including MIT, the Boston and San Francisco Community Music Schools and the University of San Diego and currently teaches at San Diego State University.
